Are gender reveals really necessary?

Question

I kinda wanna have one but I kinda wanna spend the money on the babe. Are you guys having one?

Answer

I’m opting for a baby shower instead. I think it’s silly to have two parties and I think most other people feel the same.

Answer

Ive been thinking about doing a small one with just close family and only a cake. Nothing crazy or big. Ill leave the big party for the baby shower.

Answer

No. My baby doesn’t need special items based on their sex. I’m not even finding out the gender for the sole fact my relatives would purchase tutus or trucks - it would literally be a sea of pink or blue. As an educator I can’t stand that garbage.

Answer

I think they are cute, but I'm not going to have one. I just want to have one big gathering (baby shower) 😊

Answer

Nope, baby shower will be more than enough party for us!

Answer

We did one with smoke bombs and our closet friends and family and finger foods. 
Super simple
Super cheap

Answer

We are having one but just immediate family and keeping it simple with a cookout.

Answer

I’m not really into parties for myself because I don’t like too much attention.... but I like surprises. So what I’m thinking of doing is reveal the gender to my parents in a creative way when they don’t even know that they are about to learn the gender! Annnnddddd then I’ll do something cute to reveal the gender to my in-laws and other family members. I’m just going to have fun with it. Like giving them an Easter egg to break open to reveal colored confetti or revealing painted hand prints on my belly. I’m sure I’ll have more ideas when the time comes. ☺️

Answer

We’re going to have one in our current city with all our friends and some of my husbands family since my baby shower will be in another province with my family and some of my childhood girlfriends. Two completely different groups of people. At least this way everyone gets to be involved in a celebration of some sort. I think we’re going to do a gender reveal but it won’t be the entire focus of the party, just part of it. Thinking of the theme Drinks and Diapers. Some other friends have had it and it’s really well received since it’s so easy. We have drinks and food and if guests want to bring a gift, they bring diapers of any size or quantity.

Answer

I’m pregnant with my third, and have never done one.
